[Windows] Can save a strlen call knowing there's exactly one zero #122

Description

@AlexGuteniev

Not sure if it is really needed, as perf gain and simplification are both very small.

Referring to this:

if (!res && size != 0) {
result.resize(size);
res = (S_OK == idebug_->GetNameByOffset(
offset,
&result[0],
static_cast<ULONG>(result.size()),
&size,
0
));
trim_right_zeroes(result);
} else if (res) {
result = name;
}

According to the updated IDebugSymbols::GetNameByOffset documentation, sizes will include the space for exactly one null terminator:

This size includes the space for the '\0' terminating character.

So the assignment in the else branch can be like:

result.assign(name, size - 1);

and trim_right_zeroes can be avoided by resizing string as result.resize(size - 1) prior the second call.

Ditto for GetLineByOffset below.
